Bill > S1960

This bill proposes to repeal the amendments made to the Controlled Substances Act by the Ensuring Patient Access and Effective Drug Enforcement Act of 2016. The key provisions of this bill are: 1. It repeals Sections 1 and 2 of the Ensuring Patient Access and Effective Drug Enforcement Act of 2016, which had amended the registration process under the Controlled Substances Act. 2. It removes the definition of "factors as may be relevant to and consistent with the public health and safety" from the Controlled Substances Act. 3. It removes the provision allowing for the opportunity to submit a corrective action plan prior to the revocation or suspension of a registration under the Controlled Substances Act. The goal of this bill is to undo the changes made by the 2016 Ensuring Patient Access and Effective Drug Enforcement Act, which had aimed to balance the need for patient access to controlled substances with drug enforcement efforts.
